About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. In the quiet town of Dentonville, something peculiar began happening near Dr. Horton’s dental practice. Every night around sunset, a little boy would appear outside the window, pointing and whispering excitedly to his invisible friend. No one knew who he was or why he came, but everyone agreed it was odd—especially when his dog started howling along with him. One evening, a delivery driver noticed them and waved hello. The boy waved back enthusiastically, still talking to no one in particular. Curious neighbors soon joined the scene, bringing snacks and toys for their newfound friend. It turned out that every day after closing time, Dr. Horton pretended not to see them, pretending they were just his imagination—a perfect excuse to take an extra-long coffee break.
2. One day, while a regular patient sat anxiously in the waiting room, an old man arrived with a mysterious package under his arm. As he approached the reception desk, everyone noticed that every time he took a step closer to the office door, it seemed to move slightly backward. Finally, after much confusion and laughter, they realized that the old man was simply delivering a new set of dentures—causing the door to wobble as if it were moving backwards. The regular patient relaxed, realizing that sometimes life's mysteries are just quirks of nature or dentistry.
3. Late one night, as Dr. Horton was locking up his office, he heard a strange humming coming from the empty waiting room. Curious, he peeked inside and saw a row of chairs swaying gently, as if someone were whispering secrets into their ear. Suddenly, an old hat rolled out from under one chair and landed on Dr. Horton’s foot with a thud. Startled, he looked around and noticed that each chair had a different colored sock sticking out from beneath it. Turning off the lights, he left, laughing softly, wondering whose socks these were—and whether they’d mind if he returned them in the morning.
4. Late one night, as Dr. Horton was locking up his office, he heard a strange humming coming from the parking lot. Curious, he peered out and saw a faint glow emanating from behind the closed door of the adjacent building. As he approached closer, the light grew brighter, revealing a tiny old man in a lab coat, busily tinkering with something on the ground. Turns out, it was just an electrician working late fixing the security lights. Dr. Horton chuckled and invited him for coffee, realizing that sometimes the most mysterious things turn out to be nothing more than friendly neighbors helping out.
